Converse just debuted a super colorful trans-themed sneaker, and it’s cool AF
Converse has long been one of our favorite forms of footwear. The brand’s shoes are simple, casual, and almost always the perfect, low-key complement to any and every outfit. And just when we thought we couldn’t love the brand any more, they just debuted a Pride series—including a trans-themed sneak.
The sneaker is modeled after the transgender pride flag, which is blue, pink, and white (which is meant to symbolize male, female, and those transitioning between the two), and the soles are rainbow-colored. It retails for $80 and is currently available on the brand’s website.
And Twitter is here for it.
